Happy Christmas Everyone...
« on: December 21, 2012, 08:30:04 AM »
I'm sure I can speak on behalf of the other Mods in wishing everyone a happy, safe and joyous Christmas season.


Stay safe and hug someone you love.


The new year brings plenty of new ideas and RTEs at local State and National levels - so stay tuned.


Thanks to all Members for your input and participation on this Forum, as you have helped make it one of the great stop-ins on the internet.


The number of grateful people from advice received in OzSTOC forum threads is innumerable.


OzSTOC has revelled in going from strength to strength both in front of, and behind the scenes. Streak will send out a newsletter in January, curtailing a few plans and ideas for OzSTOC, so keep your chains well oiled!       :p


To our international guests and Members - all the above applies as well. You have all added a fantastic insight into our brotherhood from afar and it is much appreciated. Don't be afraid to post up some festive season pics.


Thanks must go to the Mods for a fantastic effort in website house-keeping and ideas and general management of issues.       :beer


And Lastly... I hope you all get TWISTIES for Christmas!


Cheers, The OzSTOC Team.       :thumb

Well spake, great Guru.

Guess we'll find out who "hasn't got a life" by who posts here on Christmas Day.    :wink1

With all this festive cheer, it must be getting near time to go shopping for pressies ...
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Best wishes to all. Take care during the "silly season". Beware the tin-tops with Christmas baubles on the bull-bar.

BEST WISHES TO EVERYONE WHO HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH OZSTOC  :thumbs :thumbs :thumbs

It's everyone on this forum that makes OzSTOC what it is. When my computer was 'off the road' for a couple of weeks I was getting 'withdrawls' from not being able to get my daily fix.

Hope you all get what you wish for and have the very best New Year. :runyay

Take care all,

Merry Christmas to you all. Only joined this site this year and have been truely blessed with the information and encouragement that is so readily given from you guys (& girls) during my restoration (my bike not me) of my ST1100.

Am on my way to Whyalla for a couple of years stint for work and was wondering if their is any STers down that way? I have sent my (boys toys, photo attached) on ahead by transporter to meet up again in the new year and hope to enjoy many miles of site seeing and it would be nice to ride with someone else at times.

will take me a few weeks to settle in and get the internet up and running down there to get back on line. So until then, keep safe and healthy and will chat again next year.

Thanks Whizz,

Had the Jag for a No. of years but the bike I have just finished restoring. Fitted the last piece of tupperware and fuzzy seat cover last Tuesday.

Looking forward to a happy and long union.
